The kids, although they like Captain Marvel a good deal (he's a kid in his other identity, after all), were not thrilled with this one. He looks all right if you don't compare him to some of the other figures. He's less mobile than anything else we've acquired, jointed at shoulder, elbow, hip and knee (and no extended shoulder joint), and the head turns, and that's it. The body is a little blocky and the legs look a little spindly. The cape comes off easily, which is fine, and the figure has decent detailing--the embroidery on the cape is raised, and the boots are seamed, and you can see and feel the texture of the sash.
Overall playable and seems sturdy enough, but I'd have to think twice before getting another one in this series, and I'd definitely hesitate about ordering it online.
